Harvard's centre field was very successful in bringing the ball down toward goal, but the attack lost many chances to score through frequent errors and too little shooting. Hays at goal was very effective and stopped several difficult shots. On the attack, Bennett, Outerbridge and Adams were fast and aggressive. The team-play of the defence was uniformly good...
...players became unable to oppose effectively the strong Harvard attack, and goals were shot in rapid succession. Harvard's defence was uniformly strong, and Lehmann's body checking was particularly effective. On the attack, Bennett, Blaxter, Outerbridge and Smith played a consistently aggressive game. Hays, at goal, made several difficult stops. For Cornell, Bleakley, Curran and Scheidenhelm were swift and alert...
...Soldiers Field by the score of 6 to 5 in the most sensational game of the season, and the year before, lost by the score of 7 to 0 in a game played in the rain. The Princeton team this year has been so erratic that it is difficult to judge the chances in the game this afternoon. At the beginning of the season it lost two games to Georgetown by scores of 1 to 0 and 5 to 4, and on April 23 it was defeated by Brown, 7 to 3. Last Wednesday, however, it defeated Brown...

Quigley was rather unsteady behind the bat, was unable to throw accurately to second, and let Randall try for a foul that should have been his. At the bat, however, he made a three-base hit in the eighth inning which brought in Fischel...
...lose it by passing too much in front of goal; this fault was largely corrected in the second half, however, when aggressive attack and frequent shooting resulted in five goals, as against one in the first half. The University team defence was uniformly good. hays, at goal, made some difficult stops, and played an exceptionally strong game for a man inexperienced in the position. On the attack, the play of Bennett, Adams and Outer bridge of Harvard was conspicuous for coolness and good stick-work and that of O'Flynn, Wall and Kennedy of the Crescent team for speed...
